Headlights are off

Post by Basho »

Guys I just realized that my headlight not the bi xenon but the indicator headlight is off?

Before I used to get both headlights on with the LED running lights all very bright! now when I turn on the light the headlight dont come on and led is not bright at all... when I switch to o the LED DTRL are very bright!

anyone had this issue?

its weird and the look sucks without these light!

I got it from service center 3 weeks before! is it possible they messed up something?

You have got Bi-Xenon's and the indicators are in the same housing.

Have you checked the fuses?

To be honest, I'm as confused as you are. What do you actually want to know?

With regards to the outside lamps.

- DRL's dim when selecting the headlamps (dipped and main beam).
- Indicators serve one function.
- Turning lamps serve one function.

Therefore, one has the following:

Lower casing - DRL's only.
Headlamp - Dipped and main beam (Bi-Xenon unit), Indicators (frosted covering to the unit) and turning lamps.

Take the cap off, twist and pull, disconnect the plug and change the bulb. Repeat to refit.
